CMM was proud to serve as the Presenting Sponsor of this incredible event, supporting the Strata Foundation and a memorable day for all who attended!

The Strata Foundation’s 2026 Golf Outing was tremendous success, bringing together supporters for a memorable day at St. George’s Golf & Country Club. Participants enjoyed a scenic round of golf followed by an evening cocktail reception, with perfect weather and the welcome presence of volunteers from America's VetDogs and the Guide Dog Foundation for the Blind throughout the course.

The reception highlighted the impact of the event’s mission. Attendees heard a moving testimonial from a veteran who shared how a service dog transformed his life, offering renewed purpose. Honorees Donna and Gus Lugten also spoke, sharing the heartfelt story behind their 2025 dog naming and encouraging others to take part in this meaningful sponsorship.

All proceeds from the outing will support America’s VetDogs’ new puppy raising center in Smithtown, NY, helping to provide life-changing service dogs to veterans and first responders.

Founder Joe Campolo reflected on the significance of this year’s cause, stating, “As our nation celebrates its 250 anniversary, we are focused on honoring our veterans, the men and women who have dedicated themselves to protecting our safety and freedom. Their service allows us to enjoy our liberty and spend time with the people we love, and we are proud to support organizations that make a meaningful difference in their lives.”
